People heading to see The Odyssey<\/a> are being warned to ditch one of the biggest cinema habits: Turning up 20 minutes after the time on the ticket, to avoid the trailers.<\/p>\n

Normally, you can count on sitting through what feels like forever of adverts and trailers before the actual film starts, but rumours have been circulating that some screenings of Christopher Nolan<\/a>‘s new blockbuster won’t have any trailers at all.<\/p>\n

Posts shared on Twitter claim: “The Odyssey IMAX 70MM screenings will not have any trailer. The movie will begin at the time of your ticket. Arrive early and don’t be late!”<\/p>\n

Before you panic though, there’s one important catch.<\/p>\n

This only applies to the special IMAX 70mm screenings. If you’ve managed to get tickets for one of those, the film will begin at the advertised start time, so you’ll want to be in your seat before then.<\/p>\n

The only footage shown beforehand will be an exclusive preview from Dune: Part Three, which has been attached to IMAX screenings of The Odyssey. Aside from that, there won’t be the usual run of adverts and trailers.<\/p>\n

The change makes sense considering Nolan has long championed the IMAX format. According to the film’s website: “IMAX combines custom theater design with proprietary picture and sound technology to deliver an immersive movie experience. The Odyssey will be presented entirely in IMAX’s 1.90:1 Expanded Aspect Ratio with select IMAX with Laser locations showing it in IMAX’s 1.43:1 Expanded Aspect Ratio. The film will fill your entire field of vision on the floor-to-ceiling screen. The Odyssey is the first feature film ever shot entirely with IMAX Film Cameras.”<\/p>\n

For the full experience, fans have been encouraged to see the film in IMAX 70mm. In the UK, there are only two cinemas capable of projecting true 15\/70mm IMAX film: the BFI IMAX in London and the Science Museum IMAX (Ronson Theatre) in South Kensington. The BFI IMAX is also hosting the UK’s exclusive 70mm release of The Odyssey.<\/p>\n

If you’re watching the film in a regular IMAX screen instead, you don’t need to worry. Those screenings will still include the normal run of trailers before the main feature begins.<\/p>\n

So, the rule is pretty simple: If you’ve booked one of the sought-after IMAX 70mm screenings, get there for the exact time printed on your ticket. For every other screening, you can still expect the usual pre-film trailers and adverts.<\/p>\n
